the only thing that's a little pain but more uncomfortable is the hole where he pulled out my gallbladder. it was full of stones and infected so it was hard to get out. My surgeon said that is not common. but everything else feels pretty good.

My preop was today. I was there about 3 hours! I finally found sugar free popsicles. Looks like I'm all set :)

I am june 23rd! I am day 4 of pre op liquid diet! Getting nervous!

Would anyone be interested in starting a little exchange. We could do a pen pal thing and send a small package to someone else who is pre or post op to brighten the mood? A friend of mine did this and she said it was such an awesome feeling to talk to someone in the same boat who knew what she was going through. post here or shoot me a message if you are interested!

It's to late for me since I am tomorrow. We care on Facebook now though too.. A lot easier to talk there!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
